Mostly 10 X 6 around here.
Depends on the spec, a new one with a heavy duty axle and ram and high cribs could cost over 2k to buy. (not factory trailer)
Probably cheaper for a lighter made one.

I wouldn’t think any companies are actually making 10 by 6 timber trailers. They were usually made by small independent builders, around here anyway. I’d say there are very few of these type of trailer being made any more, although there would probably be plenty of people still able to make them.
I think Fleming, and probably some others, make fairly lightweight trailers around that size, but they would only be a steel dropside trailer. They may be willing to make higher mesh sides to fit, if you wanted to go that route....

I think Lee Trailers in Waterford make timber or partly timber trailers. I am sure they make a trailer in your own spec too.

PF Gill Ltd are near here and always have some nice small trailers,
You see them in the background here, might be worth a try.

Very poor chassis, a neighbour asked someone to make a light trailer for turf...then someone put gravel in it....end of trailer

Just looking at the Fleming website.... They do offer galvanised mesh sides, suitable for turf, on their smaller trailers.
